I feel like they're crawling all over me...

I was sitting in my office when I heard what sounded like my colleague tap dancing out in the hall.I ignored it for a while but as it continued I had to get up and see what was going on.She was kicking at a cockroach…the largest cockroach I have ever seen.It was currently on its back flailing around trying to right itself so it could go carry off a small child.The woman I work with was trying to kick it down the hall away from her office.Someone had told her that if you squish a cockroach with your shoe their eggs attach to the bottom of the shoe and then come home with you and your house gets infested with roaches and possibly the plague. (Does anyone know if this is true?)I got grossed out and went back into my office to quietly gag and freak out.When I came back out of my office later the cockroach was gone.We still haven’t recovered the cleaning woman it carried off.
